THEY'RE SURE-NUFF DAVY CROCKETTS-Davy Crockett, I fabled frontiersman, would be proud of his namesake and descend ant in Houston, Tex. For Davy Crockett III, great-great grandson i of the Alamo hero it a modest man who acts like he doesn't give a whoop or a holler for the current jukebox glorification of his name. "They're sure makin' a thing of it," say the1 31-year-old i architect. A taciturn man in the true mountaineer tradition he admits hearing "The Ballad of Davy Crockett" a "couple of times." iAnd his four-year-old son, Davy Crockett IV, alio allows as how he's heard it Crockett says he's a descendant of. the legendary jDavy through the hero's youngest son. Of the original Davy'a me ' mentos he hasn't so much as a shred of cbonskin. In fact, to show Davy IV how things were in the old days, he had to go out and borrow Tennessee long rifle. EXCLU8IVE NEA PHOTO. By FRANK O'BRIEN WASHINGTON I A loosening of federal regulations on common carrier transportation, along wun stiffer controls on private and contract carriers, has been recom mended by five of President Eisenhower's cabinet members. For example, the caoinet level committee suggested stripping the Interstate Commerce commission of its authority to fix precise rates for common carriers, leaving It to fix maximum and minimum rates. The carriers could then set their own rates, within those limits, and review upon complaint. It suggested also that the ICC's power .to suspend 'proposed rate changes should be modified so that it could do so only upon a finding that the proposed new rates would be unlawful and would result in injury to a complainant. The period in which a suspension could be ordered would be cut from tne present seven months to three. The report suggested limiting of private truck operations to distri bution of the owner's products and the return haul of materials used in his business. It said this would abate "infringement of private carriers upon common carriers." Contract' carriers would be required to post . their rates publicly, and they would be required to become common car riers if the ICC found that they were performing such services. A common carrier is one whose needed to put the recommendations Sen.
